Hi, from looking at your other posts it doesn't look like your migration to Plusnet is complete yet. SMTP authenticatioin will not work until your PN account is active I'm afraid.

Superusers are not staff, but they do have a direct line of communication into the business in order to raise issues, concerns and feedback from the community.

I am receiving e-mails O.K. --- and could send them, until suddenly they wouldn't send except through the browser.   Can anyone help?

Thanks  ... Sheen

Sounds like you are having the same problem as me.  Who is your mobile provider?

I am with Vodafone and over the past few weeks I have had to switch between port 25 and port 587 in order to send emails.  It is pretty annoying.

update:

Just noticed you are with T-Mobile

It would be interesting to see if changing the outgoing server port works for you.
